FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 
 
Q: Which Barnett crossbow is the most popular and why? 
A: 
The Revolution and Quad 400 are the most popular. 
The Revolution is designed carefully to bring hunting to a new level of performance, comfort and efficiency. 
The Revolution has 150-pound draw weight.  With the Veloci-Speed Cam and Cable System this bow launches 
arrows at speeds of 345 feet per second. The Revolution also features a 3 1/2“ Adjustable Cheek Piece and 2” 
Adjustable Rear Stock.  The Quick Detach front end sets up and breaks down in seconds with the push of a 
button. The Quad 400 delivers speed, comfort, looks and value.  The Quad 400 has an all new composite stock, 
vented quad limb assembly coupled with our “Veloci-Speed” high-energy cam system, a thumbhole grip and a 
built in crank cocking device attachment (crank device optional).  The Quad 400 also launches arrows at speeds 
of 345 feet per second.  
 
Q: What is the pull weight/ length of Barnett’s triggers? 
A: The trigger assembly incorporates details such as a scope elevation wheel and a 3/8" dovetail 
mount for scopes. The bow features several other major features as well, such as a breakdown 
mechanism for storage in hard gun cases for transport; ambidextrous Monte-Carlo rifle stock with 
plunger-style ambidextrous safety switch, precision front sight assembly for permanent range 
settings (sight pins lock down with allen keys for windage and elevation). 
 
The Revolution trigger mechanism has a precision outer case, molded of high-strength polycarbonate 
material. The interior moving parts are either machined or of high tolerance castings. The pull 
weight is a mere 4.5 lb. with a 5/16" pull length. This is standard on Revolution XS, Revolution, and 
Quad 400. 
The innovative extended trigger mechanism allows for crossbows designed with extremely long power 
strokes without causing the bow to become large and unwieldy. This is accomplished through the 
addition of a transfer bar from the actual trigger pull back to the firing activator. This feature 
enables the production of high-performance crossbows that remain compact in stature. The pull 
weight on this style trigger is approximately 7 lb. with a 1/2" pull length. This is standard on the 
Quad 300, RC-150 and RX models. 
The standard trigger mechanism is a basic, straight-drop pull design with the pull located directly 
beneath the firing activator. It is constructed of mostly stamped hardened steel parts. It has a pull 
weight of about 7.5 lb. and pull length of 1/2".  
This is standard on the Wildcat’s and Rhino Sport Mag. 
 
NOTE: All Barnett trigger mechanisms feature an automatic safety, which is engaged 
when the bow is cocked and must be released each time firing.
